Each Agent's Warrant will entitle the holder, on exercise, to purchase one Unit of the Company at a price of $0.20 for a period of 24 months from the completion of the Brokered Offering.

In addition to the Brokered Offering, the Company has arranged a non-brokered private placement of a further 5,000,000 Units for aggregate proceeds of $1,000,000 (the "Non-Brokered Offering" and together with the Brokered Offering, the "Offerings").

The Offerings are expected to close on or about August 31, 2012. All securities issued in connection with the Offerings will be subject to a minimum four month hold period. The Offerings are subject to all required approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The gross proceeds of the Offerings will be used for the advancement of the Company's properties in South Korea, the repayment of short term debt and for general working capital purposes.
